Just found a special card for Marines amongst my Imperium box set. It's called Scythes Of The Emperor and is basically 5 Terminator stands with a Thuderhawk Gunship all for 250pts. From the type of card its on i'd assume its either from the Titan Legions boxset or a White Dwarf issue?? Anyone know anything about the unit?? I assume it can be used with any Marine army? Its just i only have the card and there isn't any additional info on there apart from the morale value / break point / victory point values?? |

It was a special unit from a WD. There was 4 in total, including Krugers Heroes - a unit of 3 veteran Russ Tanks |

I think so, but cant confirm that. One of the others was a Chaos Marine unit called "The Blood Slaughterers". Cant recall what the 4th one was though |

Yeh, i have that card too. I doubt i have the copy of White Dwarf though so i don't know of any special rules or history for thr units? I'll have a look through my other cards and see if i can find anymore, i seem to remember there may be an Eldar card. ![]() |

yup, they were in the UK edition, back in the SMII / Titan Legions days. Scythes of the Emperor. Kreugers Heroes. Jungle fighters of Catachan (I think) & I dont remember what the fourth was. |

Yup, Kreuger's Heroes (3 russes) , Scythes of the Emperor (T-hawk + Termies) , Catachan Devils (regular IG company card but with a few special rules) and Blood Slaughterers (CSM Legion) |

Hmm, I have it I'm sure, I just don't remember it. Mayhaps I don't have that 'dwarf (I've only ever collected after 150 or thereabouts when it had something epic related in it). Something to remember to look up when I return to civilisation! |

Played the Cats vs. CSMs using our modified SM1 rules ... I killed a lot of IG ... but my CSMs lost by not finding/capturing any of the Warp Gates ... ![]() ![]() |
